Dylan Fairchild is the pen name of a Virginia-based author. He usually writes much more serious books in a different genre.

"My Name is Nelson" is the author's first thriller. It's a genre-busting blend of comedy, action, romance, politics, and science fiction. "The Indie View" awarded it "five-plus" stars and said, "In terms of sheer storytelling mastery, it's one of the best books we've seen in a while."

The author is happy to respond to any questions and comments on his 欧宝娱乐 page, especially witty remarks about his awesome photo.

Popular Answered Questions

Where in Virginia are you from? I ask because you mentioned the name of my home town-Newport News, in your wonderful book. One of the best I've read in a while and I read A LOT! Epes Robertson

Dylan Fairchild Epes, thank you for the kind words. I'm happy to hear you enjoyed the book.

I'm residing in eastern Virginia, and I'm fairly familiar with Newport News. As you obviously know, the Newport News/Hampton Roads area is remarkable. For those who are not familiar with it, in addition to all the cool touristy things like VA Beach, Busch Gardens and Colonial Williamsburg, it also features a remarkable assortment of scientific and military facilities. NASA, Newport News Shipbuilding, Jefferson Labs, Norfolk Naval Station (largest navy base in the world), Langley AFB, Fort Eustis, Oceana NAS. It's also fairly routine to see Air Force One practicing landings in Newport News.

Thank you for the compliments and I love your hometown!(less)

Quotes by Dylan Fairchild (?)

“Good Lord. I feel like we're in a tawdry novel."
- President Andrew MacIntyre

"Really, Mister President? Tawdry? It'd be pretty much the best novel ever. Action, romance...”

“What was it Tolstoy said about unhappy families?聽 Happy families are all alike, but unhappy families are unhappy in their own way?聽 Tolstoy must have had an ex-wife.聽 She was probably a Tchaikovsky hater.”
― Dylan Fairchild, My Name is Nelson: Pretty Much the Best Novel Ever
